Charles Lloyd has always led exceptional bands, and this is one of the finest. Following on from the live album “Rabo de Nube” which won both the Readers and Critics Polls of Jazz Times, he released his latest studio album "Mirror" featuring the quartet with Jason Moran, Reuben Rogers and Eric Harland. Familiar material is reappraised and transformed in this session recorded in California in December 2009.
